The Way to Well Health Tour travels the country delivering free health tests, education and consultations to adults 18 and over. The preventative and early detection health services offered through the tour provide a baseline status of visitors' overall health.

During tour stops, a certified wellness staff administers free health tests and risk assessment that will provide participants with personal health information that may indicate symptoms and potential risks for cancer, heart disease and diabetes.

Visitors can expect to complete the testing process in about 20 minutes. Results are ready immediately and will be explained during an on-site consultation with a Walgreens pharmacist or one of our certified wellness staff. No insurance is necessary and insurance will not be billed.
